New Year’s Day prayer service

All Christians are encouraged to begin 2010 right. Join with other “pray-ers” in praise of the Lord and in seeking His will for the world, nation, state, community, church and personally. Gather between 7 a.m. and 7:10 a.m., Friday, Jan. 1, about two miles east of Beeline on Houston Mesa Road at the top of the hill, just west of Mesa del Caballo. There is a five-minute hike to an overlook where the service will be held. Dress warmly. In case of rain or too much snow the group will meet at Scoops, 201 West Main Street, Suite H (between Sawmill Theatres and Macky’s). For more information call 928-472-8178
